The Imperfect Cook

IF I CAN COOK, SO CAN YOU!

Cooking comes naturally to some people. NOT FOR ME!  Whenever I tried, I usually messed something up because I was so stressed thinking about whether I followed the recipe exactly as it was written. I could NEVER make the perfect meal. And that was just it.

​

No meal is perfect! (Unless you are a Michelin Star chef ;) ) I realized I needed to find simple everyday recipes and it was okay to improvise!

​

I wanted to share all the great recipes I found so everyone can also try them AND change it up a bit to be their own too!

​

BECAUSE BEING AN IMPERFECT COOK CAN ACTUALLY BE BETTER THAN PERFECT!
